RICHMOND, Va. – Rioters blocked a fire truck from responding to a burning home early Sunday morning in Richmond, according to Richmond Police Chief Will Smith.

“Protesters intentionally set a fire to an occupied building on Broad Street. This is not the only occupied building that has been set fire to over the last two days. But they prohibited us from getting on scene,” Smith said. “We had to force our way to make a clear path for the fire department. Protestors intercepted that fire apparatus several blocks away with vehicles and blocked that fire department’s access to the structure fire. Inside that home was a child.”

Smith’s voice filled with emotion as he recounted the event during a Sunday morning press conference.

“Officers were able to help those people out of the house. We were able to get the fire department there safely,” he said before pausing to regain his composure. ”When you take a legitimate issue and hijack it for unknown reasons, that is unacceptable to me. It's unacceptable to the Richmond Police Department and unacceptable to the City of Richmond.”

As law enforcement officials brace for another night of violent protests in Minneapolis, Minnesota National Guard members activated to support them are now armed and carrying ammunition, the general in charge said Sunday.

Guard members are carrying rifles, sidearms and ammunition in response to a "credible threat" aimed directly against them as reported by the FBI, Army Maj. Gen. Jon Jensen, adjutant general of the Minnesota National Guard, said in a phone briefing with reporters.

As riots spring up across the country and protests are organized across the world, images of violence were captured and uploaded to social media, showcasing the extent of the chaos that rocked several major U.S. cities last night. A particularly shocking image came from Portland, Oregon, as a man who was reportedly helping a harassed man for carrying an American flag was chased down and assaulted, reportedly losing some teeth in the process.

One assaulted man was carrying the Star-Spangled Banner before he was confronted by the rioters who tried to take the flag from him. When he refused to hand over the flag, he was sucker-punched by a man wearing a “F*** Trump” t-shirt.

Post Millennial editor-at-large Andy Ngo tweeted out the brutal footage with the caption: “Portland: A man brought an American flag to the antifa/BLM protest (later riot). He is confronted & then sucker-punched by a man wearing a “F— Trump” shirt. The mob rushed in to beat him. He never let go of the flag. @PortlandPolice did not help.”
